    If a trucker is merging into your lane like that, they probably have good reason.
    Example:
    Two lane interstate/highway, approaching an on ramp with vehicles attempting to merge in.
    Trucker moves over into your lane to let them in.
    And then there's you, side-by-side with a multi-ton cargo machine because...why?
    Lack of situational awareness? Did the off ramp not clue you in to the fact that an on ramp is approaching and that there may be other vehicles looking to merge in and that the trucker may need to move over to let them in?
    Maybe you (and probably the 3+ cars ahead of you) thought they could all over take the semi and merging traffic all at once instead of leaving room for the trucker to move over if needed?

    TL;DR you're probably the dumb ass.

    I love this because Larian got wise to my shenanigans since the pre-release. I didn't think there was an easy way to keep her from retreating to her basement anymore

    In the pre-release days

    you could just corner her or block the entrance to the basement (after a successful perception roll) with your party or the environment and keep her trapped upstairs.
    Looks like they have given her...misty step...if I remember correctly, so she'll just slip away into the basement if you're not able to put out enough damage in a single round

    Well, they got the demographic right at least.
    I suspect Cletus is probably going to use it to jam/roll back his electricity meter reader or try to interfere with electric vehicle charging stations to "own the libs" rather than attacking grid backbones

    Easy. The 80s and older crowd will know this from some inherent eldritch knowledge or have no idea. But everyone else will know this from Jimmy Neutron.

    I can't tell which side of the argument your response is supposed to fall on...
    Yes, people typically listen through their car speakers. Good job. Gold star.
    But not all cars have Bluetooth connectivity. There's still a lot of people who drive vehicles that have to rely on 3.5mm connections (either directly, or with cassette or even CD adapters!). Or maybe their car supports Bluetooth audio, but they prefer the higher fidelity audio that a 3.5mm interface provides vs Bluetooth.

    Maybe I'm missing something here. But this response holds no water.

    Funnily enough, I find "Do the right thing" to be even more ambiguous!
    Do the right thing by whom? Their shareholders? Well now we're just throwing the problem over the proverbial fence, now aren't we?
    "We're not evil! We're doing the right things according to our shareholders!... who just so happen to have evil intentions"

    Can we make up our minds, please?
    In the 90s-2000s we had these shaded, almost 3D icons everywhere. Then we transitioned to a flat, minimalist style.
    Give us something new and exciting instead of capitalizing on "retro nostalgia"

    Same here brother. I love that Jerboa is open source and available on F-Droid, but it acts up sometimes and only supports servers >= 0.18.0, so I've been bouncing until some more of the instances that I'm on catch up.

    What drew you to BaconReader? I was a user by circumstance, really. The only real options back on the day were BR and RIF (I think Alien Blue was a thing at that time, but we all know how that turned out) and I just happened to go with BR and never switched.
    I shouldn't say that. I did give Sync a shot for the last couple months before the apocalypse, and it was pretty snazzy once I got used to it. Excited to see how their Lemmy app turns out!
